description Internationalisation is an important component in the transformation of higher education globally. Since 2007, the Malaysian higher education system has had a strong focus on internationalisation in positioning Malaysia as a hub for higher education. Malaysia is a member of the ASEM Education Process (AEP) and an active participant in several initiatives focusing on mobility and quality assurance since 2008. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the internationalisation of higher education efforts in Malaysia and the AEP. The AEP has influenced higher education development in Asia and Europe and received rising consideration for strategic cooperation and networking. Data were collected through a Likert style questionnaire with 170 respondents who were selected by employing total population sampling. The empirical findings indicate that the support of the AEP corresponded positively with the internationalisation process and has had a significant impact on Malaysian higher education internationalisation. Evidence shows that Malaysia's participation in the AEP needs to be encouraged, and that existing and new internationalisation policies should be updated and formulated. Abstrak Pengantarabangsaan merupakan komponen yang penting dalam transformasi pendidikan tinggi di peringkat global. Sejak tahun 2007, sistem pendidikan tinggi di Malaysia mempunyai fokus terhadap pengantarabangsaan dalam meletakkan Malaysia sebagai pusat pendidikan tinggi. Malayasia adalah anggota ASEM Education Process (AEP) sejak tahun 2008 dan aktif dalam beberapa inisiatif yang memfokuskan kepada mobiliti serta jaminan kualiti. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menilai hubungan di antara usaha‐usaha pengantarabangsaan pendidikan tinggi Malaysia dan AEP. AEP telah mempengaruhi perkembangan pendidikan tinggi di Asia dan Eropah dan telah mendapat perhatian yang tinggi untuk kerjasama dan jaringan strategik. Data dikumpulkan melalui borang soal‐selidik berdasarkan konsep likert dengan 170 responden yang dipilih dengan menggunakan sampel keseluruhan populasi. Penemuan empirikal menunjukkan bahawa sokongan AEP berkorelasi positif dengan proses pengantarabangsaan dan memberi kesan yang signifikan terhadap pengantarabangsaan pendidikan tinggi di Malaysia. Justeru, bukti menunjukkan bahawa penyertaan Malaysia dalam AEP perlu dipertingkatkan dan dasar‐ dasar pengantarabangsaan yang sedia ada perlu diperbaharui dan dikemaskini.
